It's a girl!!

We found out this week that baby number three is going to be a little girl!! So, naturally, I celebrated by doing a pink frilly layout. :)



I used Cute Lil' Kaylee and by Erica Zane, and I also used Erica's new templates, D.B. Wannabes V.1

Here's another layout I did this week, also using Erica'z new D.B. Wannabes templates, as well as her newest kit, Love Happens.

Some recent layouts

I won't bore you all with every single layout I've done since July, but here are a few of my favorites. :) {Click each layout for credits.}

Yay! I'm back!!

After a couple months of adjusting to working and then about 3 1/2 months of morning sickness, I am ready to start blogging again! I have actually been doing some scrapping/crafting, just no time for blogging. I'm feeling much better now (and almost half-way through my pregnancy!) and so I'm hoping to be more diligent about my blogging!

For now, here's a page from this week featuring Erica Zane's newest kit, Say It Ain't Snow!



I lifted a page called Laugh by mommy22girls for the Grand Theft Layout Challenge at Scrap Matters.

Hello poor little neglected scrapping blog. It's been so long!

You may have wondered why I mysteriously stopped scrapping 2 months ago (if there's anyone out there left to wonder). My husband had to fire his office manager in May and so I took over the job, which means all my free time flew right out the window. After working, taking care of the kids, and trying to keep up with the house work, I was too exhausted to do anything else! On top of that, I've had some other craziness in my personal life, making my scrapping/blogging time non-existent.

Things are getting back to normal now, though, and I'm actually scrapping again. It feels good! So, without any more blabber from me, I'll just share a few of the pages I've done since I last posted.

Chugga, chugga, choo, choo!

I wanted to be sure to let you know about a blog train coming up this weekend that you won't want to miss! Sarah Bennett's CT is doing a template blog train this Friday!!

And now for a few pages I've done this week:

This one uses Erica Zane's new Lean and Green kit as well as her new EZ Date Tags.



This one uses some of Chelle's Goodies: Food For Fans, Coming Full Circle templates, and Stitch Me Up: Dated.

Happy iNSD!!! And a template freebie!

Once again, it's been two weeks since my last post. The good news is that I finally have that template I've been promising! :)

Did you do anything fun for [international] Digital Scrapooking Day? There is SO much going on, and it's not too late to join in the fun, games, and sales! Scrap Matters has so much going on, you're sure to find something to do!

One of the best parts of iNSD is the grab bags. You can usually get 4 or 5 new products for $5 or less! Erica Zane teamed up with Denise Beatty Originals for her grab bag and it's truly awesome! Here's a page I did with it:


Chelle's Creations also has a fabulous grab bag for sale this weekend. You won't want to miss the date stamps that are included in it. Chelle is the queen of stitched elements and these are awesome!

Here's a page I did with some of the stuff in Chelle's grab bag:


Here are some of the other pages I've done in the past two weeks:

*Note: I usually provide links to the products I'm referring to, but I didn't this time because most of the scrapbooking sites are running slow with all the iNSD fun today! I'll add them later.*
